TO Comix Press

Thanks for all your submissions to "The New Hotness" everyone! There's some great stuff in there, and we'll be pouring over it to make some difficult decisions.

We'll reach out to everyone who applied by August 3rd!

Today’s the last day to submit. These guys are great to work with!

The submission window for our queer Tiefling anthology ends this Sunday July 20 at midnight! Get those pitches and portfolios in, we'd love to work with you!

www.tocomix.com/submissions

Looks like submissions close on the 20th. Three more days.

I bullied my writing group, my coworkers and my former students about this today, and now I'm going to bully YOU to apply!

My apologies, my spam filter ate the email!

If you’re applying to both write and draw a story, absolutely submit three story pitches and include your portfolio in the information.

If you’re also comfortable illustrating someone else’s writing, you can apply as an artist as well.

My apologies, I've been fighting my hosting for a while. Can you try steven@tocomix.com ?

Yep, co-writers or co-artists are fine!

Don't have a full creative team? Don't worry, we'll pair folks up! Full information on applying as an artist or writer can be found on the submissions page:

www.tocomix.com/submissions

Work created through AI will not be considered. TO Comix publishes works for humans by humans.

We're offering a $100 CAD page rate split amongst the creative team, as well as 3 comp copies per contributor.

Creative teams who hit our Early Bird Deadline will get another 10 comp copies per contributor for a total of 13.

Creators will retain all rights to their IP.

Tieflings have found particular resonance in the queer ttrpg community. It feels like almost every queer D&D player has a tiefling OC!

We’re inviting creators to share personal stories through their tiefling avatars across a range of genres, including romance, action, sci-fi, comedy, and horror.

[PAID] Submissions are open for our queer Tiefling anthology "The New Hotness"!

Led by the gifted Shuster- and Eisner-winning @andrewwheeler.bsky.social, this will be our 12th anthology, and in many ways a spiritual sequel to our queer YA book "Shout Out!"

One time while travelling alone, I arrived in a city during a donut crawl and proceeded to go to ~6 different donut shops. It was the best way to get to know the place. This comic is like that but, like, way cuter! Also the art is traditional watercolours!

In Malcolm Derikx and @pangolinart.bsky.social's "Bloodsucking Monsters" two millennial vampires face an unimaginable crisis; everyone's a renter, and no one can invite them in! Who are they supposed to eat?!

Find the full comic in THE CITY WE CHOSE, on Kickstarter now!

In this autobio story, a sudden layoff sees Brandon and his family forced to leave their planned life in Ottawa. When the money runs out, where do you go?
